Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 13C also known as B-cell-activating factor receptor or BAFF receptor is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TNFRSF13C gene. By homology to a BAC clone, the BAFFR gene was mapped to chromosome 22q13.1-q13.31. B-cell activating factor(BAFF) enhances B-cell survival in vitro and is a regulator of the peripheral B-cell population. The protein encoded by this gene is a receptor for BAFF and is a type III transmembrane protein containing a single extracellular phenylalanine-rich domain. It is thought that this receptor is the principal receptor required for BAFF-mediated mature B-cell survival. Sample Type: Cell culture supernates, serum and plasma (heparin, EDTA) Intended Use: For quantitative detection of mouse TNFRSF13C in cell culture supernates, serum and plasma (heparin, EDTA). Sensitivity: <10pg/ml Range: 78-5000pg/ml Specificity: Natural and recombinant mouse TNFRSF13C Test Principle: This mouse TNFRSF13C BioAssay(TM) ELISA Kit was based on standard sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. A monoclonal antibody from rat specific for TNFRSF13C has been precoated onto 96-well plates. Standards(NSO) and test samples are added to the wells, a biotinylated detection polyclonal antibody from goat specific for TNFRSF13C is added subsequently and then followed by washing with PBS or TBS buffer. Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex was added and unbound conjugates were washed away with PBS or TBS buffer. HRP substrate TMB was used to visualize HRP enzymatic reaction. TMB was catalyzed by HRP to produce a blue color product that changed into yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow is proportional to the mouse TNFRSF13C amount of sample captured in plate.
